There are many varieties of the YSL tassel bag replica when it comes to size, color and material. This bag comes in smooth leather, patent leather, suede, python leather, croc leather and also grain de poudre textured leather. But even if there are so many different options for this bag, it’s important to be familiar with the common features all of them have.

I’ve seen many fake YSL bags, from really cheap to really expensive , so I thought I should make a small guide for those of you who want to learn more about this iconic bag.

I’ve already shown you some bad fake YSL bags as to know what to avoid. What I want to point out this time is that an YSL Tassel bag replica doesn’t have to be cheap to be bad. On the contrary, I’ve turned to eBay for some examples and unfortunately I did find them. I really don’t want to scare you girls with these bad examples I find on eBay but you really need to stay safe.

The only good part about these two Yves Saint Laurent replica handbags I’ve found on eBay is that the price is relatively cheap, which should make anyone suspicious.

I will also show you some really cheap YSL tassel bag replica bags for comparison. Given their price, I can’t say I’m disappointed by the way they look. Still, if you come across a similar replica that is more expensive than these, you should keep in mind that it’s not worth it.

Cheap-Looking Fake YSL Bags

As long as you know the features a designer bag has, you should be safe. But you need to pay extra attention to details. Just because a bag looks really similar to an authentic at first sight, it doesn’t mean it is. Here are some photos of a grey YSL tassel bag replica that costs £220. It’s an expensive replica but you have to admit it looks really good and it’s not easy to tell it’s a fake for the untrained eye:

Fake YSL Tassel Bag Details

Tassel – goes without saying but this is an essential feature of this bag and a good way to tell if the bag is fake or not. The tassels should be long and thick and gorgeous!

Stamp on the interior of the flap – should say “Saint Laurent Paris”, not “Yves Saint Laurent”.

Lining – never a shiny textile material like this one:

– either smooth leather or suede.

For shoulder bags – check the chain and the hardware engravings: the two rings attaching the chain strap; the metal plaque and the tassel.

Authentic YSL Tassel Bag Hardware Engravings To Check

There are two types of chains for the YSL Tassel bags. Both are correct but one is for older models and the chunkier one is for newer styles.

The flap – check to see if it’s symmetric and how long it is (should be about an inch higher than the bottom of the bag).

The logo – on the leather tag inside the bag.

The interior – should feature a small open pocket and just one big compartment no matter the size. The Saint Laurent Cassandre Tassel bag should never have a zipper pocket. I notice that many of the bad fake Saint Laurent tassel bags have an interior that is similar to that of the Saint Laurent Chain Wallet. The YSL Chain Wallet has a zipper pocket in the middle and also many small open pockets.

Also, don’t make decisions like buying expensive designer bags in a hurry, even if the seller pressures you to make a decision. Just think about the fact that an honest seller will be willing to show you all the extra pictures you need to see before you decide to buy it. But be prepared to recognize the possible flaws too because otherwise those pictures will not be helpful at all and you’ll also be more inclined to think the seller is honest just because she/he was willing to send more pictures.

If you check all these features, you will learn not only how to choose good replicas but also how to spot a YSL tassel bag replica. Good luck!

Consider this a refresher post. For those of you who might have been slightly confused between Saint Laurent’s YSL Monogram and Toile Monogram collections, here’s help. Whereas Toile Monogram refers to anything that comes in repetitive YSL monogram print, YSL Monogram is any bag that comes adorned with the YSL logo, designed by artist Cassandre in 1961 on Monsieur Saint Laurent’s request.

And while the Toile Monogram collection is more straightforward in terms of styles available (it’s also permanent so pieces don’t really change much from season to season), the YSL Monogram is much larger, with bags and SLGs in almost every style from both permanent and seasonal collections that all come adorned with the YSL emblem.

So what style of bags can you expect from the YSL Monogram collection? Everything really, from quilted leather shoulder bags to top handle handbags. Then there are the hobos, the satchels and of course, the sexier sling bags that many have grown to love.

Because this post wouldn’t be quite complete without some examples of bags from the YSL Monogram collection, here are some current season beauties you could most definitely check out, from the one in embossed croc to tanned leather Université, with prices ranging from SGD2890 to SGD3230 for the lot shown above.

Buying from purseushow.com is like taking a gamble but in the case of these three YSLreplica bags things went pretty good. It’s really hard to find a trustworthy seller who will actually send you what you ordered but it’s not impossible.

I ordered a Saint Laurent Cabas Chyc replica bag from this site almost a year ago and I received a totally different handbag, so I guess I was one of the less lucky ones. But I’m glad that other girls are actually satisfied with their replica Yves Saint Laurent bags!

A friend of mine ordered three YSL replica bags from purseushow.com and she actually got what she ordered. What I did notice though is that they are not all of the same quality. But we’ll discuss about each of them later. First, let’s see her email and the photos:

“Hi there Eva!

I read your purseushow.com reviews and knew that it was a pretty risky business to order from this site but a friend of mine recommended me a seller for YSL replica bags and I went for it! I ordered a blue Sac de Jour bag and two small Y satchels with chain (black and fuchsia).

I don’t know if they’re perfect, but they look very nice to me. Your help is much needed, I’d like to know if there are any major flaws. I have to mention that two of them are my Christmas gifts for my sister and my best friend and I want to make sure that their fake YSL bags are really good!”

My dear, these YSL replica bags are great Christmas gifts, good choice! I’m glad to say there are no major flaws to them. Still, if you want to know why they aren’t perfect either, I’ll tell you about the small flaws I noticed.

The Sac de Jour seems to hold its shape well and the leather looks really good! What I don’t like is that the front logo is not straight. Also, the leather tag is a bit too long and the letters are crooked. I’d actually recommend you (or the person you give it to) to wear it without the leather name tag.

The two Saint Laurent Mini Pochette Y chain replica purses look good too but the fuchsia YSL replica bag is actually better than the black one. I know this may sound strange since they come from the same seller, but things like this are actually not uncommon! You can notice in the photos that the foldover front flap of the black YSL replica bag doesn’t have the right dimensions. Also, the golden chain is too yellow, which makes it look cheap and the golden “Y” detail on the flap is a bit twisted to the left.

Another clear difference is between the heat embossed letters on the interior leather tags. The fuchsia bag has well-defined letters while in the case of the black one the letters are not clear and don’t have that golden finish to them.

All in all, these three YSL replica bags are good, since most of their flaws are not obvious. So you can enjoy wearing them! But what this purseushow.com review proves once again is that with these guys it’s mostly about luck. And I don’t know about you, but when I buy designer replica bags I need more safety than this, especially when I plan to offer them as gifts.
